Vince McMahon is known within the wrestling world as being an enigma and his eccentricities have made their way to WWE over the years.

One such oddity has been revealed by Kurt Angle and the WWE Hall Of Famer stated on his podcast that a WWE talent was once "basically suspended" for a month because they did not thank McMahon for their match.

"You know, when you say thank you, and the person says, you're welcome, that's usually the proper way to say it. But in pro wrestling, when you say thank you, the other person is supposed to say thank you back. So it's like, 'thank you,' 'No, thank you.' You don't say you're welcome,'" Angle began.

"I was told one time a wrestler told Vince, Vince said, 'Hey, thank you for the match tonight.' He said, 'You're welcome.' Vince actually took him off the roster for about a month and basically suspended him for a month because he didn't say thank you, he said, 'You're welcome.'"
